"WW C"- COVID-19, GLOBAL CASES SURPASS 676 MILLION...Here we go again 2025 are we ready for Trump to fuck this up again?

See. This is happening around the country. Since schools are basically childcare for workers, what the fuck do parents do? :smh: This ain't the 1950s where one high school dropout could fund a middle-class life. People are damned if they do, damned if they don't. And it will be like this every new COVID version.

What real solution will they provide or will they just stop pretending to give a fuck? Because I'm not aware of any real rhetoric on the federal level. Where is :angry: "crush the virus" 2021 support?


Most of the problem are parents wanting the schools to open up so they don't have to deal with their children. They expect teachers to babysit.....THEIR...kids so they don't have to deal with them all day.Someone posted facebook comments with parents bitching and complaining about their kids staying at home in the middle of a pandemic last year.


It's fucked up,how school administration and parents across the country rather see kids catch this shit than have a second year of home schooling and want to be all in tears when the kid dies. A kid's immune system ain't fully developed but who cares as long I'm not watching them all day.

My mom told me and my siblings,if this had happened when we were growing up,she would not allow us to go in school.


:smh: :smh: :smh:

No fucks are given. Meanwhile, 45 districts in Texas have stopped in-person learning. Parents are to hold their own nuts finding childcare. Same state that cut the $300 UE.

So how is this for rocket science. Shut down the schools temporarily. Scatter kids to all kinds of childcare solutions where they interact with god knows who and some get infected. Open schools back so kids all come back and spread the shit some more. Rinse. Repeat.

If I didn't know any better, I'd swear they were trying to kill people. :smh: Ladies and gentlemen, these are your 'educated' leaders. Coming to a school district near you.
 





 



I am currently working in a high school clinic. You would think that my biggest concern would be COVID right now, and you'd be right... but there is another problem that sits in the shadow of that menace, and it's just as destructive, but no one seems to be noticing...

1
Well over 50% of the students I see on a given day aren't coming in there with skinned knees, or the sniffles. They're coming to my clinic in varying degrees of breakdown.

I'm seeing students in full-on panic attacks. Not "OMG I'm totally freaking out!" drama. Real attacks.

2
Why is this a trend I'm seeing?

Well, it's layered.

On the surface, you have the obvious: these kids are afraid of COVID, and they have a reason to be. Their governor is more interested in fawning over his Republican base than doing the right thing, so not only...

3
... are mask mandates not in place at the state level, he's actually sabotaging any district's attempt to put one in place to protect the students.

So, that's a big part of it. But these are also some hardworking kids. They're dedicated to their education.

4
When they have to stay home to quarantine, it eats at them.

Social media is a poor substitute for human interaction, and they're losing a lot of that.

And despite the misconceptions of the older generations, these kids have a strong work ethic.

5
The ones with part time jobs can't just quit and draw unemployment. Their bosses know that, and they're working them right into the gray area of legality. These kids are getting up, going to school, going home, changing clothes, working into the night...

6
...going home, squeezing in their homework, and crashing for a few hours before starting all over again.

Any of us would have a tough time handling a schedule like that as grown adults. What chance do these kids have?

7
And let's not forget that the jobs these kids have are the least likely to take precautions against COVID contact, and the most likely to have customers prone to verbally abuse the employees, who are nowhere near emotionally prepared to handle that.

9
This pandemic, along with all the peripheral elements that go with it, is killing our kids slowly. And when they look around, all they see is a bunch of supposed adults ignoring their suffering as they play politics and act like poster children for Dunning Kruger.

10
So I let them sit, or lie down, in my clinic. I let them cry. I let them rage. And, perhaps most importantly, I listen to them.

It's time more of us did.

END
UPDATE: Oh my gods,I thought I was just yelling into the abyss! Thank you, all of you, who have reached out to me with your own stories and encouragement. You all have made more of an impact than you can imagine!

If I don't respond back to you...

1/2
... please don't take it personally; I have a lot on my plate. But I want you all to know that we are in this together, and we CAN make a difference for our kids! Please stay strong and take care of yourselves! ❤
 
Thank God I am a loner I don’t be around a lot of people and a lot of people don’t be around me. It’s a good thing I got a lot of shit out of my system in the late 90s early and mid 2000s.
The sooner the world accepts a new reality, the better for everyone. But we got midterms coming up next year so damn if declaring victory ain't a priority for politicians before public health.

This isnt the first plague in history.

The human race will beat this thing.

Might take 5 years, 10 years, whatever.

Its a matter of time... and science.
